After

First things first, I clearly do not belong to the intended audience which is probably narrowed to female and romantic teens, between 11 and 15 years old. Possibly older, with a touch of nostalgia. Tessa, an ingenuous teen, leaves home, mum and high school in order to integrate university, her roommate inviting her to join an idle and carefree group. She meets there Hardin, a rebel without a cause (Nicholas Ray, 1956) but with a keen interest in literature, like herself. The continuation is relatively predictable and indubitably goofy. My own rating: 2/3 out of 10. My rating while trying to belong to the intended audience, with a generous empathy boosted to the extreme: 4/5 out of 10.

The teen angst is so over played and corney. My eyes hurt and my ears are needing from the corn fest. Normally I'd like abit if corniness but this is beyond what I'd tolerate.

How many times has this film been done before? CW, CBS, Lifetime and all others cable networks as well have done this engilsh accent male role to give the lead guy some edge, as if engilsh accents makes a guy more attractive (ridiculous) and a simple American college girl fallen for the guy and finding out he's the type that goes on shooter sprees on college campuses. Lame, lame and more lame. This films only endorse white college student stupidity nothing more.

Almost painful to sit through. Story could be condensed into a minute long, bad dialog spaced out with awful montages. Predictable and very very very cringy.

The fact that this movie won 3 Teen Choice Awards is seriously disturbing. Is this the kind of movie we want to promote to the female teen audience? Bad boy just needs a good woman to tame him. NO! This is a toxic relationship, and we need to stop promoting it! So many teen movies have this at the core and it's sending the wrong message. This is not what a good and healthy relationship looks like. This is what you RUN from. Ladies, you're not responsible for "fixing" a man.
